OHHHHHH--what generous blog candy!!!!! Well--it's not exactly a resolution, but I definitely have set the goal to stretch myself creatively and do as many challenges as I can! Now that the hectic holiday season is over, I've also challenged myself to make 5 Christmas cards a month starting this month! I don't want to get in the same rushed predicament as this year! I hope everyone at Simon Says Stamp has a wonderful, healthy, and creative 2010!!!!

Wow!! This is a great give-away. My New Year goal is to take more time to enjoy scrapping/crafting for myself! I love making things for other people and often find little time to do my own layouts or home decor projects, so this year I want to make sure I get caught up on lots of scrapbook pages along with projects for other people. Happy New Year to all of the Simon Says Stamp group!Stacey

HAPPY NEW YEAR SIMON SAYS STAMPS CREW :) ohhh what a lovely yummie candy :)You are always so generous!!Oh I don't have many new years resulutions I am so bad at keeping them ;) but one thing I want to improve my cards a bit more :) especially my colouring I want to bring to a new level :)

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and that 2010 brings wonderfful things for all of you! What do I want craft wise for 2010? I'd like to find time to spend in my studio to play AND organize. My "Me" time always seems to get lost, so inevitably I'm always rushing to finish a card or a project.

Oh YES what a wonderful blog candy! First I would like to wish you ALL a wonderful and creative new year. My resolution for this year is: no procrastination anymore, I make 1 christmas card per week and 2 miscellanous, so I will not have to hurry anymore for any birthday or for christmas this year.Please join me in for the candy, that would help!

Happy new year to all at Simon Says and heres to another fab year of crafting.My wonderful hubby has been converting our cellar into a craftroom for me and it,s just about ready Whoo Hoo!i,ve just to add the furniture so my new years crafty resolution has to be to get it organised put away neatly and to keep it TIDY LOL!!!! I know it wont be tidy all the timeThanx for the chance of winning yummy candy.Trish (-:

Wow, what great blog candy!! Hmm, my goal for 2010 is to get back into scrapbooking and complete some albums. I have a couple I have been working on, so want to complete them as well as work on having cards made AHEAD of time so I'm not rushing last minute!

Craft-wise I'm planning to enter more challenges, to learn how to use my Copics (try to find a course) and get ahead with my Christmas cards. Oh, and enjoy what I have, try not to go running after the latest new must-have!

Happy new year everyone. What a generous candy, thank you for the chance.I've been sick a lot this year so my new year's resolution is to live and enjoy my life more. And of course continue blogging and maybe reach more followers and hits.

Happy New year!I have not made any resolution for New year. But I do wish to learn a lot of new tecniques to improve my cards. I will do more challenges and I will be better at leaving comments on other crafters blogs. I love it so much when someone says "Hi" on my blog, so I want to pay it back. I am also looking forward to sending my cards, lightening the day for my friends and family. And I did not make any resolutions for new year... *phu* This is going to be a busy year! *LOL*

Wow - what a generous blog candy you're offering! My goal for 2010 is to be better prepped for Xmas (do winter cards every month I think) and to work on my copic colouring! I love getting inspiration from challenges so I hope to BE an inspiration for other bloggers & crafters too! Happy New Year to you all for a fantastic 2010!Hugs, Danielle

Waw that is really generous of you! Love to be the winner, hope I will be! :)My New Year resolution, to craft more and to sell more of my jewellry. Need to start learning to sew!Happy New Year Simon Say! Hugs,Moni

What an awesome candy! Wow. My crafting resolution is to make the time to be creative at least 3X/week as I also work and am wife and motehr. I also plan to take more 'everyday' photos, print those photos, AND scrap those photos. Oh, and I also want to create cards all year so that I always have some 'on hand' rather than scrambling at the last minute to make one. Happy New Year 2010!

my biggest goals for 2010 involve EXPERIMENTING with my crafties. i have dabbled with a little of this and a little of that, but ALWAYS go back to my comforts, and that simply won't do! i want to ROCK the alcohol inks and i want to feel COMPLETELY confident with my Cuttlebug and Nesties and such. and GESSO! i have some, and i wanna get MESSO! :D

and i'm really hoping to forge closer ties with some of my new bloggy friends.

Happy New Year everyone at Simon Says Stamp. What generous candy!!I'd like to get better at cardmaking, enter more challenges, stop buying so much stash and get on another DT.I'd also like to be not rushing at the last minute with challenges and to get my Christmas cards done earlier this year.

I have recently discovered the world of mini albums (and I'm addicted!)so I will hopefully be concentrating on designing and putting together several of these for various occasions during the year. I love incorporating all kinds of art medium into them. I need to continue on with the heritage regular scrapbooking pages that I have started this past year also. Happy New Year to EVERYONE!

Well now!!! I want to try something completely new, I've heard of Tim Holtz and his beautiful creative craft products but I've never tried any. I've seen some fab examples and would like to try some of his products so that is my goal for 2010. all that lovely distressing, arty type of crafting.

What an amazing offer...the yummiest candy ever! I have a lot of art/crafting goals for the year, but at the top is organizing my room and supplies, doing a card or gift tag each week for next Christmas (lol), and improving my card making skills as much as possible. Thanks so much for the chance to win! Have a happy and healthy 2010!

ohhh what a nice candy Blog...you have so much nice things:-)By the way, happy New Year !My goals are to finish to scrap all the old kids pictures for their personal albums(as they are now 15 and 19yo and I scrap since some years only). I still have enveloppes with old photos to scrap. Will be nice to be up to date with their albums :-)

There are so many- where do I start. I want to resume my scrapbooking...meet at least 1 card challenge a day-that translates to posting every day! I'm also going to start on Christmas cards early! Here's to a very creative, successful year for everyone at simon says!

My Goodness, what a generous give away. I would say my resolution this year would be to consistent. I want to post on my blog new artwork at least 3-4 a weeks and stick to it. I know people love to be able to count on something and I want that to be me and my artwork and videos.

Thanks for offering such wonderful New Years Candy! And Happy New Year to the whole staff at Simon Says Stamps! My goal is to keep improving the cards I make and to get more of them out to the people who need some cheering up!

Happy 2010 to everyone!!! one of my goals is to finish some kits that are sitting in a box begging to be completed, another goal is to make some mini albums with the ideas I have dancing in my head ... major goal for 2010 to be more productive with my cards, albums and altered items.

How exciting!!! I don't like "cute" BUT...I have fallen in love with the Magnolia stamps! How could you not like them?? Keeping my fingers crossed till the draw! I have been collecting "cute" paper and embellishments just for this!

My craft related goals for 2010 are to create lotsa fun things for my baby that is due in May this year. Its my 1st child & can't wait to be able to create a scrapbook with lotsa photos of its 1st few months. Have already started with the ultrasound photos. So that would be my one big goal. Also to create a nursery with lots of creative things to frame - including sewing & cross stitch as well as paper crafts :o)

my goal is to start the year getting my supplies and work area organized and labeled. then i want to learn more techniques and start combining them in mixed media works. hope everyone has a great 2010!

Woo! What an awesome candy offer! My crafty goal this year is to try some new that-is-so-not-me techniques. I tried it with Tim's tags, and really enjoyed the process (learned a thing or two, too)! Happy New Year!

2010 is starting very well! What blog candy!Happy new year to you and I wish you joy, happiness and ...creativity!My 2010 new year's crafting / art goals are: 1. tidy out my desk;2. prepare cards on time and not always at the last moment;3. take an hour a week for myself and scrapping!

Oh my. I don't do resolutions but my goal is to be more organised, to open an etsy site to sell my work, Don't know whats stopping me there! Keep up with my blag and design teams and have more fun crafting!!!! Oh and too win your blog candy, LOL!!!!! Happy 2010

Wow, such generous candy! So many choices! Thanks for the opportunity.I hope to learn more crafts, take part in more cardmaking challenges and also to send a 1-4-1 card to all the members of our RSA stamping group.All the best for 2010 to the Simon Says Stamp Blog team!

Oh WOW, what a fantastic candy!! My craft and art goals this year are simple. I want to learn!! I want to learn new techniques, learn to think outside the box, learn to me more creative, take a couple of art classes. I have so many projects floating around in my head that I need to learn to be more focused and organized.

Happy New Year to everyone. I am an artist who hit a creative wall some time ago and my creativity has been sporadic over the last year. So this year I am going to create at least one thing every week. In theory I am aiming for a painting or drawing every week but I've really left the boundaries wide so it might be card, ATCs or even inchies. I just have to be creative every week.

happy New Year to all! My goal for this year is to get way ahead of the game. I've already started on projects for Christmas and hope to get most of that done in the next 2 months. I also want to spend more time scrapbooking for myself instead of other people so my photos from the last 3 years can find a home in my albums.Great blog candy!

My Crafty New Year Goal is to make one Christmas Card every week. Hopefully then I will have enough by the time Christmas comes (I ran out of cards and time last year, so had to buy some - how terrible is that?!)

What an incredible give away! My goal is to take some set time out for myself to catch up on my scrapbooks and card making that I have fallen so far behind on. To learn a few new techniques with all the cool tools I purchased in 2009!

Happy New Year!I did consider making a pact with myself not to spend anything on new stash this year, but soon realised that this was totally never gonna happen! So, lets be realistic - I have set myself a monthly limit! Fingers crossed! I mean,Mr Holtz has some fantastic newbies on the horizon!!! :-))))Have a creative 2010 everyone!SuzyX

Wow, what a great candy! My goal for 2010 and my crafting is to be making more and better cards - that should be possible with all the inspirational blogs to visit here in bloglandia! :-)I also got my first sewing machine this christmas, so I would like to learn how to use that one, too..! Happy New Year by the way!

WOW! This is fabulous candy!! My new years resolution is to organize my stamping area and to try some new techniques. I love making cards and craft projects and always looking for new ideas.Thanks for the chance to win such wonderful candy!!

Ohh Wee, Super exciting!! The Fabulous SSS group are so very generous!!!My resolution for 2010 is 2 fold: 1) I'll practice, practice, practice my card making & scrapbooking layouts 2) Use more product than I buy, hence the reason I need to get busy so I can still shop (hee, hee).I'm crossing my fingers & toes in hopes I may win, woo hoo ;-)Cheers,Lisa

Omg - what fantastic candy - I can imagine myself trying to choose , you would have to set a time limit on me !! My crafting goals - well i must remember to eat and get to bed on time. and do H****W**K!! I am not joking i get so involved with a project i forget to have lunch and to make dinner and i can be found crafting at 3am. Can cause a few arguments LOL!!

I will be 18 soon, will have saved up £4k and I'm looking to trade forex by using CFDs which give you 1:200 leverage with them. Would it be possible to parley my £4k into £1 million in 2 years trading forex using CFDs and has this, or anything similar with forex ever been done before?

Wow what a fab giveaway- very generous.I haven't really made any new years resolutions this year because I never stick to them lol, but I am going to try my hardest to make more me time, to make more cards and blog more as I haven't been able to do as much as I would of liked over the last few months.Lora x

wow what great blog candy. I usually chose a word to describe my goal for the new year. This year my word is minimize. I want to minimize my waistline. Minimize my old scrap goodies so I can get fresh new stuff without the guilt.Minimize my pictures on my memory cards. I need to scrap all the wonderful pics I have taken over the last year. SO that is it my word for the ear is MINIMIZE!!I hope everyone has a great 2010

WOW--what generous blog candy!My New Year goal is to make sure that I have enough Christmas cards (made by myself) for Christmas 2010 and to meet a load more happy card makers on their blogs.I hope everyone at Simon Says Stamp had a wonderful Christmas and all the best for 2010!xx

I just stumbled on your site and love the inspiration here. My goals this year is to get caught up on my scrapping and to learn more techniques when it comes to stamping. I have to admit that I've just recently over the past several months become addicted to stamping. I can't wait to get started on this years cards. I hope everyone at Simon Says has a wonderful New Year.

Great giveaway! My goal for 2010 is to have more fun producing paper crafts and less worries about getting "perfect" results. And I also intend to buy and learn how to use copic markers!Thanks for the chance!

Happy New Year to you and tkx for this stunning Candy! My Goals for this year are to improve my coloring with copics, to make more cards to have them ready on hand when needed and to start much earlier with the xmas-card-production......Susanne H.

I am hoping to finally get my website up and running and to post to my blog more faithfully, and experimenting with new art methods that I'm unfamiliar with. I love making ATCs and cards and such, but want to branch out and challenge myself this year! I am now off to visit your Simon Says Stamp website!

I'd say I have the same goal as always... to get lots of scrapbooking done this year. It never seems to happen though. I do resolve however to take a little time each month for me to spend doing something creative!

Cool!! Thank you so much for the chance to win! I think one of my goals for this year is updating my blog often and at least finish 3 cards and 1 layout a week. This year is going to be very busy for me, since I'm going to plan my wedding!! So probably these two goals are enough :)Happy New Year!!HugsHazel

I'm basically a card-maker, but I rarely send them to anyone! I'm on two design teams and I tend to make card fronts. However, this year, I am resolving to make cards in addition to my design assignments, and I resolve to send cards....many cards....through the mail.

Wahoo for Heidi and Simon Says Stamp! What a generous gift. My goal is to finally get my craft studio set up so I can use it. We've lived in our house for 3 years and the room was dedicated for my crafting use. Unfortunately life kept getting in the way so the room filled with stuff. I'm making progress, but still crafting on a TV tray in the living room. By the end of the month I will be IN my studio!!!

What a wonderful blog candy!! I am not making any New Year Resolutions - cos I never ever did keep any but I just wanted to wish for everyone to have peace and a wonderful year and I want to be more ahead with my Christmas cards this time!
